I enjoy the drum sander and the jobs it can do but, the real estate it takes up is pretty sizable. Even with these large drawers and shelves at the rear to store prepared paper and accessories, the footprint is still smaller than the sander itself. For my shop layout I wanted the sander positioned as shown and the drawers facing the work area. This left a wide span for the nearly 200lb sander to set on. I built using torsion designs in the top and in a reinforcement area on the bottom. The drawers are full extension and the shelves have a lip to keep abrasives and whatnot contained whilst I roll it out for use.
